While I won't guess whether it is your answer or the question that is wrong, I will say that a germ is usually a single-cell organism, and in any case is certainly not an animal!
Also, I agree that the definition of gargle is quite fantastic! Who would have thought that this word could be clearly defined without an audio-visual example!

Hi everybody!

for your nice work! You're

Here are the answers:
1-groom (garçon d'écurie) 2- germ (microbe) 3- glider (planeur)
4- gardener (jardinier) 5- guest (invité, client) 6- graft (greffer)
7- gargle (se gargariser) 8-goalkeeper (gardien de but) 9- girdle (ceinture)
10- gravedigger (fossoyeur).

Traviskidd: I know it looked weird to see the meaning of "germ" but here is what I found in my dictionary: "a very tiny animal or plant that causes disease." What else could I say?
Here's the meaning in French: stade simple et primitif d'où dérive tout être vivant (oeuf, jeune embryon, plantule, spore etc)

Thanks a lot for your participation.
